My name is Nick Westermeyer. I am a quadriplegic from a gymnastics injury sustained at Michigan State University in April 1991. Many people have travel blogs, but there are none that I know of that come from the vantage point of a wheelchair user going off the accessible path. I am interested in global travel and participating in activities not normally associated with disabled people.
